Creative Director

High‑Level Overview

As Creative Director, you will be the guardian of the Benevity brand, responsible for defining and evolving our brand’s visual and digital language to inspire action and drive social impact. You will work at the intersection of strategy and execution, leading high‑stakes creative projects and mentoring designers to elevate our global profile.

What You’ll Do

• Develop and implement a comprehensive brand design strategy aligned with Benevity’s business objectives to improve brand equity and visual consistency across all touchpoints.
• Lead the evolution of Benevity’s visual identity system across all media, ensuring it remains modern, accessible, and deeply resonant with our global audience.
• Lead day‑to‑day execution and output of the creative team and brainstorming for major marketing programs, product launches, and events. Direct, design and produce high‑quality creative assets for major campaigns, product launches, and brand initiatives, ensuring excellence in typography, color, engagement (digital) and layout.
• Own the creative team's intake process, project prioritization, and capacity planning to ensure the right work gets done at the right time and that our teams can work at the speed of impact. Build and maintain systems that give the team clarity on priorities, deadlines, and bandwidth — balancing urgent requests against longer‑horizon brand‑building work without sacrificing quality.
• Partner with Product, Marketing, Sales and People teams to ensure appropriate input and creative briefs that lend themselves to a unified brand experience across the entire customer and employee journey. Work with and influence stakeholders at all levels, including executives.
• Partner with the Digital Marketing team to deliver a high‑performing, on‑brand web experience, establishing and enforcing shared standards that drive improvements in performance, accessibility, and creative consistency.
• Provide creative direction and mentorship to the design team, supporting their design time while fostering a culture of innovation, excellence, experimentation and continuous learning.
• Oversee budget and external creative agencies and vendors to ensure timely project execution that meets Benevity’s high standards for quality brand alignment.
• Evolve and maintain our brand design system and guidelines, empowering internal teams to create on‑brand content efficiently.

What You’ll Bring (Experience)

• 8+ years of experience in brand design, with at least 3 years of creative leadership experience with B2B brands (experience with SaaS brands a plus).
• A portfolio showcasing world‑class design execution and strategic thinking across digital, print, video and physical environments.
• Proven experience leading complex creative projects, developing a creative team and influencing stakeholders at all levels, including executives.
• Excellent verbal and visual storytelling skills, with the ability to articulate design decisions and their impact on business goals. Strong interpersonal and listening skills with the ability to negotiate priorities and resolve conflicts among stakeholders.
• Expert‑level proficiency in traditional, video and evolving digital design tools. A challenger mentality, a "can‑do" attitude with the flexibility to adapt to evolving priorities in a fast‑paced environment.
• Comfortable with project management tools like Asana and design tools, bringing structure to the creative process: tracking deliverables, managing timelines, and protecting the team’s capacity without letting process slow down great work.
